Hey guys!

There is something I can't figure out long ago.
What is the difference (is any?) between the following two code snippets:

Code:

public class MyClass {   
   int someValue = 9;   
   public MyClass() {}   
   // ...   
}

Code:

public class MyClass {   
   int someValue;   
   public MyClass() {
      someValue = 9;
   }   
   // ...   
}

Basically there's no difference. For your purposes I wouldn't worry about it. The variables defined outside of the constructor get set before those inside the constructor. I think you're forced to define things outside the constructor when they're static const. eg:

Code:

static const int N = 100;
